- the upper portions of the both sidewalls 312 of the body 31 or 31' are preferably thicker than the other portions thereof such that those portions may be tightly caught in the groove 14.
- the prop member 30 Since the prop member 30 has a double structure in which the reinforcement 32 is fitted into the body 31 and the body 11 of the supporting member 10 is mounted in the upper portion of the prop member and the transverse partition 323 is formed at the intermediate portion of the reinforcement, the strength of the prop member is increased so that the prop member may not be easily deformed or damaged, even in the case that a strong impact is applied thereto. Accordingly, the life of the pallet can be prolonged. This is also true of the auxiliary prop member 30'.
- the prop member may consist of only the body 31 without the reinforcement. In this case, it is preferred that a cover is attached to the lower opening of the body.
- the gaps or intervals between and numbers of supporting members 10, upper plate members 20, prop members 30 and auxiliary prop members 30' are determined in consideration of the sizes or weights of articles to be stacked on the pallet.
- Coupling portions of the supporting members 10 and the upper plate members 20 are preferably fixed to each other by means of fasteners such as rivets 50.
- the auxiliary prop member 30' may be constructed of a tubular body with a closed top face, which may be directly coupled to the bottom surface of the body of the supporting member 10 by means of spot welding, rivetting or the like.
- top surfaces of the upper plate member 20 and the outer surface of the body 31 of the prop member 30 are preferably provided with a plurality of nonslip protrusions 60 to prevent slipperiness of the pallet and sliding of articles stacked on the pallet and to reinforce the strength of the members themselves.
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a pallet according to a modification of the pallet in Fig. 1 , which comprises three supporting members 10, five upper plate members 20, a pair of prop members 30 and an auxiliary prop member 30' combined in the same manner as in the embodiment of Fig. 1 , and further three reinforcing members 70 with the same construction as the upper plate members 20 in Fig. 1 fixed to the bottom surfaces of the prop members 30 and the auxiliary prop member 30' respectively.
- the pallet in Fig. 2 has the same functions as that in Fig. 1 except that the durability and solidity of the prop members 30 and the auxiliary prop member 30' are improved by the addition of the reinforcing members 70 and detailed description of the pallet in Fig. 2 will, therefore, be not necessary.
- the construction of the reinforcing members 70 is not limited to that in Fig. 2 , of course.
- the pallets of the present invention have been described in connection with the preferred embodiments, it is to be noted that the present invention is not limited thereto.
- the supporting members 10 may be made without the roof portion and with the wings extending outwardly from the upper ends of the walls.
- the pallets are made such that sharp cut edges of the supporting members, upper plate members and prop members are not exposed to the outside. Thus, it is possible to reduce the possible accidents of injuries and damages. Accordingly, there is an advantage in that the pallet can be safely used.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a pallet according to the preamble of claims 1, 8 and 17, made of a plastics or metal material such as aluminum adopted or used for the solidity and durability thereof, and more particularly, to a pallet in which sharp cut edges of the members are prevented from being exposed.
- Generally, pallets have been widely used to stack bulky and heavy goods for lifting and transporting, especially by forklift trucks. Among various kinds of pallets, known are robust and durable pallets comprising supporting members, upper plate members and prop members, which are formed by cutting extrusion-molded basic materials of different shapes into desired lengths of pieces.
- Since the pieces or members obtained as above have sharp cut edges, the pallets made of such members also have cut edges directly exposed to the danger of harming the workers involved and/or damaging the workers' clothes or other objects touched by them.
- To lift a pallet with goods stacked thereon, forks of a forklift truck should be inserted into spaces between prop members of the pallet. However, even a driver skilled in operating the truck may have difficulties in accurate insertion of the forks. Thus, the prop members, among others, are liable to be deformed or damaged, thereby shortening the life of the pallet itself, if the forks strike against the prop members while being inserted into the spaces between the prop members.
JP 2004 359327 - Accordingly, the present invention is conceived to solve the problems in the prior art as above. An object of the invention is to provide a pallet which may reduce possible injuries to the workers or damages to the objects involved in using, operating or keeping in custody thereof with or without goods stacked thereon.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a pallet with improved robustness or solidity. The object is solved by the features of the independent claims.
- The objects of the present invention are achieved by making cut edges of respective members of a pallet to be buried in or hidden by a cover or the like and by constructing prop members to have a reinforced double structure.

-
Figs. 1 is a perspective view of a pallet according to an embodiment of the present invention;Figs. 3 and4 are overall and partial exploded views of the assembly of a supporting member and prop members inFig. 1 , respectively; andFig. 5 is a sectional view along the line A-A ofFig. 4 . - In
Fig. 1 , the pallet comprises three supportingmembers 10 arranged parallel at a certain interval with one another, fiveupper plate members 20 placed parallel at a certain interval with one another, across and on the supportingmembers 10, and a pair ofprop members 30 and an auxiliary prop member 30' fixed on both ends and the central portion of the bottom surface of each of the supporting members, respectively. - The supporting
members 10 are formed into a rectangular tubular shape and comprises abody 11 havingopposite walls 111 and a reinforcingwall 112 therebetween and aroof portion 15 withopposite wings 13 provided with a downward projection for defining alongitudinal groove 14. - The
upper plate members 20 may have a cross section in the form as shown inFig. 6
or
Fig. 7
A conventional upper plate member including those disclosed in the Korean Utility Model Registration Nos.334246 338716 - Further, both ends of the
upper plate member 20 are covered byguards 40 which have a cross section in the form as shown in
Fig. 8
or
Fig. 9
to prevent sharp cut edges thereof from being exposed to the outside. - The
prop member 30 comprises abody 31 and areinforcement 32 with a size to be coupled within thebody 31, and the auxiliary prop member 30' also comprises a body 31' and areinforcement 32, as theprop members 30. - The
body 31 may be made by cutting an elongated tubular material, extruded to have integral inner andouter walls 311 andsidewalls 312, into a desired length. Twobodies 31 are attached under the both ends of the supportingmember 10. In thebody 31 of the prop member, theinner wall 311 has a rectangular groove made by cutting away the upper portion thereof in proportion to the height of thewall 111 of the supportingmember 10 so as to receive thebody 11 of the supporting member therein. In the body 31' of the auxiliary prop member 30' to be attached under the central portion of the supportingmember 10, both inner andouter walls 311 thereof have a rectangular groove formed by cutting awasy the upper portions thereof to receive thebody 11 of the supporting member in the same manner as described above for theprop member 30. - The
body 11 of the supportingmember 10 constructed as above is accommodated and engaged in the upper space of thebodies 31 and 31', while the bottom portion of thebody 11 is seated on the upper ends of the inner andouter walls 311 forming the bottom of the grooves. - The front and rear ends of the supporting
member 10 abut on upper ends of theouter walls 311 of thebodies 31 of the prop members, while upper ends of thesidewalls 312 thereof are placed in thelongitudinal grooves 14 of the supportingmember 10 and then covered with thewings 13. Thus, sharp cut edges at the both ends of the supportingmember 10 and the upper ends of the sidewalls of thebodies 31 of theprop members 30 are covered not to be exposed so that accidents of injuries or damages due to such sharp cut edges may be prevented. This is also true of the auxiliary prop member 30'. - Each of the
reinforcements 32 comprisesopposite sidewalls 322 with atransverse partition 323 formed therebetween, and abottom portion 321 withextensions 324 formed outwardly. - The
reinforcement 32 may be made by cutting an elongated tubular body, extruded to have a sectional shape of as shown infig. 10 , into a desired length. The length of the reinforcement is around the same as the distance between the inner andouter walls 311 of thebody 31 or 31', and the distance between outer surfaces of the bothsidewalls 322 is almost the same as that between inner surfaces of the bothsidewalls 312 of thebody 31. - Thus, upper ends of the
sidewalls reinforcement 32 is coupled into thebody 31.Walls 111 of thebody 11 are placed in the space between the sidewalls of the reinforcement, as thebody 11 of the supportingmember 10 is fitted into theprop member 30. This is also true of the body 31' of the auxiliary prop member 30'. - Meanwhile, the height of the
sidewalls 322 of thereinforcement 32 may be made lower than that of thesidewalls 312 of thebody 31 or 31'. In this case, the upper portions of the bothsidewalls 312 of thebody 31 or 31' are preferably thicker than the other portions thereof such that those portions may be tightly caught in thegroove 14. - In this state, the upper ends of the
sidewalls 322 of thereinforcement 32 are not exposed to the outside, as they are received within thegrooves 14 of the supportingmember 10, together with the upper ends of thesidewalls 312 of thebody 31 or 31'. At the same time, lower ends of the bothsidewalls 312 of thebody 31 or 31' are seated on upper surfaces of theextensions 324 of the reinforcement so that they may not be exposed to the outside. Consequently, sharp cut edges of the upper ends of the sidewalls of the reinforcement and the lower ends of the sidewalls of the body are not exposed, thereby preventing accidents of injuries or damages. - Since the
prop member 30 has a double structure in which thereinforcement 32 is fitted into thebody 31 and thebody 11 of the supportingmember 10 is mounted in the upper portion of the prop member and thetransverse partition 323 is formed at the intermediate portion of the reinforcement, the strength of the prop member is increased so that the prop member may not be easily deformed or damaged, even in the case that a strong impact is applied thereto. Accordingly, the life of the pallet can be prolonged. This is also true of the auxiliary prop member 30'. - However, depending on the size or weight of articles to be stacked on the pallet, the prop member may consist of only the
body 31 without the reinforcement. In this case, it is preferred that a cover is attached to the lower opening of the body. - The gaps or intervals between and numbers of supporting
members 10,upper plate members 20,prop members 30 and auxiliary prop members 30' are determined in consideration of the sizes or weights of articles to be stacked on the pallet. Coupling portions of the supportingmembers 10 and theupper plate members 20 are preferably fixed to each other by means of fasteners such asrivets 50. - The auxiliary prop member 30' may be constructed of a tubular body with a closed top face, which may be directly coupled to the bottom surface of the body of the supporting
member 10 by means of spot welding, rivetting or the like. - Meanwhile, the top surfaces of the
upper plate member 20 and the outer surface of thebody 31 of theprop member 30 are preferably provided with a plurality ofnonslip protrusions 60 to prevent slipperiness of the pallet and sliding of articles stacked on the pallet and to reinforce the strength of the members themselves. -
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a pallet according to a modification of the pallet inFig. 1 , which comprises three supportingmembers 10, fiveupper plate members 20, a pair ofprop members 30 and an auxiliary prop member 30' combined in the same manner as in the embodiment ofFig. 1 , and further three reinforcingmembers 70 with the same construction as theupper plate members 20 inFig. 1 fixed to the bottom surfaces of theprop members 30 and the auxiliary prop member 30' respectively. - The pallet in
Fig. 2 has the same functions as that inFig. 1 except that the durability and solidity of theprop members 30 and the auxiliary prop member 30' are improved by the addition of the reinforcingmembers 70 and detailed description of the pallet inFig. 2 will, therefore, be not necessary. - The construction of the reinforcing
members 70, is not limited to that inFig. 2 , of course. - Although the pallets of the present invention have been described in connection with the preferred embodiments, it is to be noted that the present invention is not limited thereto. For instance, the supporting
members 10 may be made without the roof portion and with the wings extending outwardly from the upper ends of the walls. - Moreover, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that variations, modifications and changes can be made to the embodiments described above without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the claims.
- According to the present invention, the pallets are made such that sharp cut edges of the supporting members, upper plate members and prop members are not exposed to the outside. Thus, it is possible to reduce the possible accidents of injuries and damages. Accordingly, there is an advantage in that the pallet can be safely used.
- Particularly, with the double structure of the prop members in which the body and the reinforcement are coupled together and the body of the supporting member is coupled to the upper portion of the prop member and the transverse partition is provided at the intermediate portion of the reinforcement, deformation or damage of the pallet can hardly be caused by force of impact thereon. Thus, there is an advantage in that the life of the pallet itself is prevented from being shortened by such impact.
